man routed >>
"Hosts acting as internetwork routers
gratuitously supply their routing tables every 30
seconds to all directly connected hosts and networks.
The response is sent to the broadcast address on
nets capable of that function, to the destination
address on point-to-point links, and to the router's
own address on other networks. The normal routing
tables are bypassed when sending gratuitous responses.
The reception of responses on each network is used to
determine that the network and interface are
functioning correctly. If no response is received on
an interface, any� other route may be chosen to route
around the interface, or the route may be dropped if
no alternative is available."
The routed daemon does xactly what u want.
